This blog addresses the fatal flaw at the core of capitalism as a system of human psycho-socio-political-economic collective self-reproduction, a flaw which ultimately renders it a self-DIS-organizing, self-destroying system -- as is becoming increasingly evident. It also details the successor system to capitalism, the new system that represents the higher, positive way forward for humanity: Political-ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY, or EQUITISM.

It is my pleasure, and my
honor, as an Officer of the Foundation
Encyclopedia
Dialectica [F.E.D.]
Office of Public Liaison, to share with you, from time to time, as they are approved
for public release by the F.E.D. General Council, key
excerpts from the internal writings and sayings of our
co-founder, Karl Seldon.

The firstsuch
release in this new
series is pasted in below.[Some E.D. standard edits have been applied, in the version
presented below, to the direct transcript of our co-founder’s discourse].

ENJOY!

Regards,

Miguel Detonacciones,

“... As we have discussed previously, ‘‘‘«monad»’’’ is the [ancient]
term that we
use as the generic name for the units, i.e., the “individuals”, that constitute the physically-spatially
local populations,
or concrete
‘‘‘«arithmoi»’’’
[i.e., the “numbers” [of units[, each
of a given, singlekind]] of eachspecifickindof being, or of‘‘‘ontology’’’ -- the concretecontent referred to, and represented by, an ‘‘‘ontologicalcategory’’’. ...”

“Suppose that, indeed,
‘symbolic categorial combinatorics’ mirrors ‘monadic combinatorics’, and that actual ‘monadic
combinatorics’ is the dialectical,
or «aufheben»,
process by
which our «kosmos» generatesnewactualontology, actualontologicalinnovations; ontologicalchange; the irruption of unprecedentednewkindsof being -- i.e., ‘‘‘qualitative change’’’ -- as an outcome of sufficientquantitativechange, in the form of sufficientgrowth in the numerosity and [physical-spatial] density of local monadic populations.”

“If so, then ‘symbolic,
categorial, dialectical
combinatorics’ should be expected to have predictive
power.”

“It should, because, in that
case, ‘symbolic, categorial, dialectical combinatorics’ ought to be able to symbolically
‘pre-construct’descriptions
of the ontologicalcontent of futureepochs of history -- of epochs of futurehistory -- resulting from the [further re-]combinations and ‘self-combinations’
of the ontologicalcategories/«monads» that are extant in the presentepoch of [natural-]history.”

“As well, ‘symbolical
categorial combinatorics’ ought to be able to symbolically ‘‘‘re-construct’’’
the ontologicalcategories/«monads» contentpresent in pastepochs of [natural-]history, via categorial/monadic
‘‘‘decomposition’’’/‘decombination’/‘‘‘deconstruction’’’/‘‘‘factorization’’’
of ontologicalcategories/«monads» extant in the presentepoch of history, i.e., of the «monads» presentlypresent. ...”

EnhancedDiagram-- Marx’s DialecticalMethod.

Dear Readers,

FYI --

FoundationEncyclopedia Dialectica [F.E.D.]
has just
published, to the Applications Page of the www.dialectics.org
web site, an enhanced diagramrepresenting Marx’s DialecticalMethod-of-Presentation in the threemain volumes of his «magnum opus», «Das Kapital.»,
in terms of the «Cirkulationsprocess des Kapitals» value-forms
content of that work.

This enhanced version includes
page number references for the pages of a standard English edition of those
three volumes, on which the capitals-circulations-process
excerpt-schematics occur, that this diagram uses to model Marx’s abstraction-process.
